FlexTrade First Provider to Offer Goldman Sachs Order Status Updates via API
FlexTrade Systems (@FlexTrade), a global leader in multi-asset execution and order management systems, has today announced that Goldman Sachs' real-time Order Status Updates (OSUs) for algorithmic orders can be streamed directly into FlexTrade’s OEMS Order Blotter via a new proprietary API – fundamentally changing how Goldman Sachs delivers data to buy-side clients.
The announcement is part of Goldman Sachs’ new suite of real-time alerting and data analytics offering, GS Alerts, which is aimed at providing clients with seamless access to metrics from within their EMS/OMS blotter. The new OSUs package offers metrics for orders in developed and emerging markets in EMEA equities, including expected residuals, estimated quantity reserved for the close, and the average participation rate of the order.
Using a new API to deliver OSU data, rather than FIX, opens new possibilities regarding the frequency and type of data being delivered to FlexTrade clients, eliminating unnecessary overheads caused by additional message traffic. FlexTrade normalizes the delivery mechanism, ensuring a seamless experience for existing OSU users, while providing flexibility for the sell-side.
Alex Harman, Managing Director at Goldman Sachs, noted: “We are thrilled our OSUs are now available via FlexTrade. This is set to fundamentally change how we deliver data to the buy-side, providing clients with greater transparency and oversight of their orders. Until now, Order Status Updates have been delivered by the market in unstandardised formats and channels, presenting delivery challenges and impacting the buy-side's experience consuming data. We have therefore opted to deliver OSUs via an API, increasing the breadth of data available to clients via a scalable and robust protocol.”
The new OSU analytics offering is directly integrated within FlexTrade’s OEMS Order Blotter, replacing the need to receive updates via additional screens or chat tools. Clients can organize their visible metrics to meet their unique trading requirements, as the complete data set is available in the FlexTrade blotter within specified standard columns – eliminating the need to request these metrics on a periodic basis. Additionally, the OSU data can be combined with FlexTrade’s alerting mechanisms and the FlexAlgoWheel framework, similar to traditional order status data. For example, if a trader has an expected residual, they can cancel or replace orders or build dynamic automation rules to increase their participation rate via FlexAlgoWheel.
Andy Mahoney, Managing Director, EMEA at FlexTrade Systems, stated: “Our clients include some of the largest, most complex financial institutions globally who regularly handle vast numbers of orders and executions. Adding any data, no matter how valuable to the end user, on top of a critical trading protocol has always been unnecessarily burdensome, which has stifled innovation. With API delivery of OSUs, it’s now possible for clients to receive a broadened range of analytics at an increased frequency, without adding message traffic or protocol overheads. Now, they can efficiently receive a comprehensive data set which improves transparency, helps adjust trading styles, and contributes to better decision-making.”

Clean Tech Leader Aymium Defeats Stora Enso at European Patent Office Boards of Appeal4.4.2025 01:07:00 EEST | Press release
Cleantech leader Aymium defeated a challenge by Stora Enso to one of Aymium's patents (European Patent EP2697185) that provides exclusive rights to produce, sell and use bio-based materials for renewable battery applications. In its written opinion, the Boards of Appeal of the European Patent Office found Stora Enso's arguments brought before the board “not convincing” and agreed that a clarifying amendment to the claims did not extend the scope of protection of the patent. The ruling further affirms Aymium's position as the global leader in biocarbon materials for battery applications. Beyond the present ruling, Aymium owns a portfolio of more than 600 patents relating to biocarbon materials, compositions and manufacturing methods, including many specifically relevant to battery materials, and is the dominant global innovator regarding biocarbon materials. The ruling, combined with Aymium's massive patent portfolio, calls into question the ability of Stora Enso to produce bio-based ba
